    Rules-Based Parenting vs Values-Based Parenting

    There is an aspect of parenting we discuss which might not be agreed on by everyone. We believe you have to be willing to let your kids fail. It's time for perfectionism parenting to be replaced by truth. Pull down the facade. Your children don’t exist to be a trophy to make you look good in front of other people. Kids are individuals who will have their own journey and story. We talk about walking with our kids through their failures and how it starts with us being transparent about our own. We can’t control our kids away from making mistakes and have to let them experience the good, the bad and the ugly. We talk about how rules provide no power or ability for your child to do what is right. Rather, they create a box-checker. How to build a life irrespective of what others think about you. You have to be willing to offend the right people in order for your kids to be mature. Your kids need to never live in fear of men. How to speak belief into your children. If you’re afraid to mess up or fail, you will never succeed. We close by discussing our ultimate goal as parents, which is to see our children be able to function in the world independent of us.

    Navigating Social Media with Teens

    Navigating parenting in a social media world is new territory for many of us. No other generation has raised their children amidst the temptations accompanying the distraction and pull of social media. For the first time ever, we are learning on the fly, how to parent children in this generation of cell phones and having anything and everything at their fingertips. How do we manage this in our home? This week we're excited to have our four oldest kids on the podcast, sharing their input and wisdom on this topic. We were really blown away by their take on this subject. We discussed if they are glad to have a phone and if they find it a valuable part of their life. They share some of the struggles they've had with self-regulating and we chat through the transitions of having more and more freedom as they get older.  We dive into the topic of boundaries and friendships, and we hear their take on what they think is happening to their generation because of the pressures to have social media, the latest phone, and forgetting to look up. Has it been detrimental or beneficial to their friendships? We're super proud of their vulnerability in sharing some experiences in hoping it will help someone else, and they drop some serious words of wisdom! Make sure to drop them a note of encouragement in the comments and share it with your friends! Thanks for listening! @rideofalifetimepodcast
